Petey then turned to a life of smuggling drugs across the borders and soon he was arrested and sent to Plane prison. It was a depressing time for Petey. After a year in prison, he reformed and soon was flying sick children across the country. Petey still flies for Children's hospitals now and often does talks to other planes that are teetering on crime such as Petey's.

What I am about to do now, I do because I am straight crazy: I am about to watch this again. This "movie" is not merely The Worst Movie I Have Ever Seen, it is quite a bit worse than I thought was physically possible. The feeling of watching Red Zone Cuba is like sitting in a hot car in summer. It is, somehow, disgusting, in the way vomit is disgusting. I don't remember any of the riffs or host segments from this episode, as everything seemed to be pulled into a Black Hole of Madness. ...Yet I am going to attempt to watch it a second time. Why? Because I am Straight Crazy, of course.

This is just training, of course, for rollergator at Rifftrax.com But, yet, NOTHING can prepare you for rollergator. Nothing. I tells you, nothing.

Seth Knight Worse than Red Zone Cuba?

[@HarryKrinkle]

Slamdance Cosmopolis Terrifying...

[@SK-zv8tr]

I think so. I remember being very bored and annoyed with RZC. Rollergator had me wanting to punch the filmmakers in the nose.

+Harry Krinkle Hey fellow Krinkle, I think it has a cozy kind of Ugliness to it. Like sitting behind an abandoned building with your shoes off & grabbing at a mud puddle with your toes...

I always get a laugh out of "Mother of mercy is this the end of Curly?"

I just noticed that one of the "posse" guys that group up to go get the bad guys is also the same actor who played the druggist that gets "seduced" for some acid in Skydivers and also played the older scientist guy in Terror From the Year 5000. Go figure.

I’ll give Coleman Francis SOME credit. At least he got to live his dream, and make movies. It’s hard to make movies with a limited budget. He made three. Red Zone Cuba being his “best” in my opinion. They should release all his movies on Blu-ray in a three pack. The Colman Trilogy, lol

[@critlv972]

This one needs a remake with Gerard Butler or Denzel Washington

Exactly, and bless him for it!!!🙏👍👻
